Daytona 200 Picks

Who you got this year walking out of there with a Rolex?

 

Wyman

 

Homer call ... Farrell

 

Hayes

 

what exactly are you drinking out of those cups??? wants a prediction ahead of any qualifying...lol. this aint ballroom dancing!

 

Which Rolex? Isn’t there one for Q and one for the race?

 

I thought it was changed so just the race winner gets one now.

 

Surprised this thread made it to 7 posts before someone complained that it's not what it used to be

Who besides Wyman and Hayes has entered?

 

Wyman, but Brandon Paasch keeps him honest all race.
There's actually likely 10 guys with a legit shot this year from the entrants I've seen.

 

Is Barnes racing the 200?

 

Yes

 

64 others so far

 

Lewis and Herrin, Herrin edges him out!

 

Paasch - I think he gets it done this year. Seems like he figured out how to take wins on moto3 bikes which is sort of like the pack they ran last year at Daytona.

 

Folks with a shot (and this list may not be complete - so no offence to anyone I left off):
Wyman, Herrin, Hayes, Paasch, Zayat, Morias, Barnes, DiSalvo, Knapp, Lewis, and Farrell.

As with any 200, much will depend preparation including a good engine build that balances power with endurance. Also the team including pit stops is very important. Oh and luck, never forget that having good luck is essential.

Qualifying might tell you who doesn't have a shot if they are too far off the pace, but it is unlikely to tell you the winner as the pole sitter rarely wins.

 

There's a lot of people who can win. Trying to predict the outcome with this many fast guys and well prepared teams is really rolling the dice. Will be a great race to watch!

 

Lots of fast guys but I can't help but root for Barney.

 

Is Duhamel still on the list?

 

Anyone else read the title a little too quick and think, "Oh good, pictures"?

 

Herrin.
